■ Certification information (SAR)
THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS INTERNATIONAL GUIDELINES FOR EXPOSURE TO 
RADIO WAVES.
Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and 
manufactured not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) 
recommended by international guidelines (ICNIRP). These limits are part of 
comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the 
general population. The guidelines were developed by independent scientific 
organisations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The 
guidelines include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all 
persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as 
the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit stated in the international 
guidelines is 2.0 W/kg*. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating 
positions with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all 
tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified 
power level, the actual SAR of the phone while operating can be well below the 
maximum value. This is because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power 
levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the 
closer you are to a base station, the lower the power output of the phone.
The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested for use at the ear is 
0.8 W/kg. While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones 
and at various positions, they all meet the relevant international guidelines for RF 
exposure.
